Embracer Group to start shutting down studios to save on costs

[Legal]

Also makes sense unfortunately. Having Gearbox maintain their publishing arm is redundant. Doing publishing with them is like signing to somebody to who's signed to somebody. Some ol' Young Money (non Drake/Nicki Minaj division) shyt.

That's the line I was thinking of, but that thumbnail is crazy.

Nah, I was a kid boss. Instead of begging the next man to use his handlebars, I went and got my own.

Tbf their last few games have been disappointing. They should've remastered SR2. But they didn't. (Apparently they "lost" the code)

They found the code and a team of TWO were working on a PC patch...

SR2 deserves a proper remaster...

Crystal Dynamics are going to get jerked at some point , ridiculous Sony let Embracer snatch them.

Whew what a damn day. First Starfield gets the mid treatment, then Gloria Victis shuts down, and now this. The gaming world is in shambles I tell ya what.

Should have just took SR2 but do it again but x10 better instead of making CW presents: Saints Row.

Looking forward to seeing their “Passion project” on a crowdfunding site in the near future.

People were hoping the reboot would be a hybrid of SR2 and 3, but they ended up making a sanitized version that didn’t appeal to anybody in their existing fanbase. Add the fact that the game was glitchy as fukk and it becomes a hell of a flop.

Volition was so arrogant with this reboot too. How are you going to mock the fans who you built over a decade with a bad game?

I honestly dont think sony needs more of these type of games. Crystal Dynamics been trying to do what Uncharted did on the ps3

They need a real rpg studio

It's crazy the same franchise that made them a household name is the same franchise that ends them. That's symbolic.

Some franchises just aren’t meant to go on forever, especially when the company and culture changes so much around it

I don't think Sony wants them, honestly. And seeing as Microsoft was eyeing IO Interactive, I wouldn't be surprise if Crystal Dynamic Eidos was on their radar, too.

Yeah.. definitely applies to Saint Row.



I expect Embracer to shut down even more studios. Losing out on that saudi money
